Yes, I was referring to CPAN.

The package manager does not do that. Did you try http://rpmfind.net?
Also, the packages should be available via yum (most likely at 
DAG http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/rpmforge.php)

And herein lies the problem: hate it or love it, it's the most
used distribution, and it should work on it first and foremost.
If it doesn't, we have a problem.

On a slightly different note, I think you are comparing apples
to oranges: you want rpm to provide search equivalent to what
an indexing site does for Debian. It shouldn't and there are
such sites out there.
